Another place repeating the mantra

I'm here to stay ashamed of where I've been

And what I've seen

These eagle eyes that judge me

Another face conceiving the moment

It never leaves it's stakes, it's claim on me

It's stakes, it's claim on me

A visionary in hiding

I'll never make it

I'll never make it

A crying wolf, this boy's become a man
I always thought I would be different

With steady hands and heart

And always in control

Be holding fast, but slowly letting go

I always thought I would make a difference

But now I'm spending lives instead of saving souls

The more I learn, the less I seem to know
Heavy hands holding his hatred

static sun supressing secret screams

Dishonouring distant dreams

Can he ever stop it?

We'll never make it

We'll never make it

The lion preys the man can't break his chains
I always thought I would be different

With steady hands and heart

And always in control


Be holding fast, but slowly letting go

I always thought I would make a difference

But now I'm spending lives instead of saving souls

The more I learn, the less I seem to know

I will illuminate

To try to help myself

To feel something for nothing

I hung the images up to see

If I could still fake all the feelings

And try to be what you want

Be everything that you need

Be everything that you need
I'm here again, consumed in the moment

My mind reflects, repeating it back to me

Repeating it back to me

Why would you even begin to try?

You'll never make it

You'll never make it

You'll never make it

You'll never make it
I always thought I would be different

With steady hands and heart

And always in control

Be holding fast, but slowly letting go

I always thought I would make a difference

But now I'm spending lives instead of saving souls

The more I learn, the less I seem to know
